PAA 1: Can I make crabby shrimp-stuffed garlic bread bombs ahead of time?

Yes, this crabby shrimp-stuffed garlic bread bombs recipe is ideal for prepping in advance. You can prepare the filling a day before, hollow out the bread, and even stuff the loaf ahead of time. Simply wrap it tightly in foil and refrigerate until you’re ready to bake. Pop it in the oven just before serving for fresh, melty results.

PAA 3: Can I freeze leftover crabby shrimp-stuffed garlic bread bombs?

Freezing is possible, but not ideal. Since shrimp and cheese can change texture when frozen and reheated, the result may be less creamy or slightly rubbery. If you must freeze leftovers, wrap them tightly and consume within 2–3 weeks. Reheat in the oven directly from frozen for best texture.

PAA 4: What can I use instead of shrimp for a seafood-free version?

For a shellfish-free twist, substitute cooked shredded chicken, mushrooms, or spinach. These ingredients still offer texture and flavor without compromising the overall experience. The rest of the recipe stays the same — the garlic, cheese, and herbs will tie it all together.

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a bowl, mix shrimp, crab, cream cheese, mozzarella, Parmesan, green onion, Old Bay, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until well combined.
Flatten each biscuit into a 4-inch circle. Spoon about 1 tbsp of filling into the center of each.
Fold edges up and pinch to seal, forming a ball. Place seam-side down on the baking sheet.
In a small bowl, mix melted butter with minced garlic and parsley.
Brush each dough ball generously with garlic butter mixture.
Bake for 15–18 minutes or until golden brown and puffed.
Brush with extra garlic butter after baking if desired. Serve warm.

Notes

Use cooked, peeled shrimp and check crab meat for shells before mixing.
You can substitute biscuit dough with crescent roll dough or pizza dough.
Great served with marinara, lemon aioli, or spicy remoulade.
To make ahead, assemble and refrigerate unbaked bombs for up to 8 hours before baking.
